Answer 1

Answer: The length of the Ron's bridge=$18\ inches$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: The length of the Anothony's bridge = 12 inches

Since, the length of the Ron's bridge = 150% of the length of Anthony's bridge.

⇒ The length of the Ron's bridge=$150\%\times12\ inches$

 [since $150\%=\frac{150}{100}=1.5$ ]

⇒ The length of the Ron's bridge=$1.5\times12\ inches$

⇒ The length of the Ron's bridge=$18\ inches$
